Morphology

versioning = version (transparent) = version + ing

Formed by adding the productive gerundive suffix '-ing' to the verb 'version' to denote the action or process.

Etymology

Versioning comes from version, which has the root vers- meaning 'turn' and appears in words like reverse. So versioning is about making different 'turns' or forms of something and keeping track of those different versions.
